Bill > A00124

This bill amends the General Municipal Law and the Public Buildings Law to prohibit municipal officers or employees, whether paid or unpaid, from displaying political advertisements on or within public buildings, public property such as flag poles and monuments, or on any uniforms, vehicles, or equipment used in an official capacity. The bill defines "municipal officer or employee" to include members of volunteer fire departments, and "political advertisement" as any item meant to advertise or promote a certain individual for political office. The bill provides exceptions for political advertisements that serve an educational or historical purpose, or when the individual is deceased.
